Federal Times’ experts cannot answer every question submitted. You’ll have the best chance of getting an answer to your question if you follow these steps:

• Ask questions that have not previously been answered. Before submitting a question, review the Q&As already on the site. Review the Frequently Asked Questions or use the "Search" tool above.

• Provide sufficient information about yourself — for instance, a question about retirement should say which retirement system you are in.

• Do not expect personal legal, financial or career advice. Answers that require a legal opinion, particularly those involving divorce and court orders, cannot be provided.

Early out or disability retirement?

January 24th, 2012 | Disability retirement Early retirement RETIREMENT

Q. I am currently off work and getting compensation from the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs. If the Postal Service offers early retirement, can I take the offer and retire while on workers’ comp? I am 52, and have more than 30 years of service. I have applied for disability retirement, but if an early out is offered, I would rather go that route instead, if possible.

A. I’m not aware of any bar to your accepting an offer of early retirement.
